Youth Leader·Athlete·Entrepreneur·Writer
I am a young Romanian at the intersection of performance sport, innovation and civic engagement - I build projects with real social impact, and I study at the Romanian-Finnish High School in Bucharest.
I have played competitive basketball for over 13 years - and now I coach, too.
I sit on the UNICEF Children's Board and the Bucharest Children's Advisory Council.
I founded HANDIFY and build interactive media-literacy tools.
I write bilingual op-eds on youth, sport, fairness and mental health.
Volunteering, advocacy and projects I build to help others.
Talent is everywhere. Opportunity shouldn't be a privilege.
This conviction shapes everything I write and every project I build for my generation.
HANDIFY is a smart-glove startup I founded: a wearable that replaces the computer mouse with natural hand gestures, making everyday computing more intuitive and accessible. The project reached the National Final of GEN-E 2026, the entrepreneurship competition run by Junior Achievement.
See the project → Media literacy · Double winnerAn interactive project that teaches teenagers how online manipulation works - by letting them build a fake story themselves, then exposing the techniques. Double winner: the Mème la vérité 2026 competition (Freedom House Romania) and the Grant My Passion 2026 Better World grant (McDonald's Romania).
See the project → Diversity & inclusionAn interactive lab on belonging in schools: you design a school, make six decisions, and discover that systems - not children - decide who belongs. Selected as a national finalist at the DI_PLOMA AWARDS 2026 - the Diversity & Inclusion Awards run by the Puternici prin Diversitate și Incluziune (OPEN MINDS) Association.

I write bilingual op-eds on youth leadership, education, sport and social impact, including youth mental health and equal access to opportunity.

On and off the court, I live for basketball and for the speed and strategy of Formula 1. I love music, I'm fascinated by cybersecurity, and I have a soft spot for fine fragrances and action films. I'm happiest travelling abroad and by the sea.
Sport taught me that talent without opportunity stays on the bench - and that no team wins by leaving its weakest player behind. I believe the world changes the way a game is won: not through one hero, but through people who show up, do the unglamorous work, and pass the ball so someone else can score. My aim is to build systems - projects, platforms and a fairer playing field - where a child's chances depend on their effort, not their address. To me, change is a team sport, played one honest action at a time.
